I am pretty sure they add some false clicks etc... There is just too many time things with random search options have been clicked. I have i targeted to a small location and they still click real random searches i have it on exact matches.. i spend over 1500 pounds a months. About $2500 a month.. I dont trust them.!!!!!!! They defo scam and do charge you for the same person clicking on you!! ie more then once... not a fair way of doing things.!!!! Google have a monopoly that is a very dangerous thing as they own the world now!! every trade has to use them and they charge me up to say around $25.93 for one click... A bit of a joke when they are scamming.. I wish there was another way but they are such a monopoly at the moment there is just not.. also they should show me the i.p address them self of who has click and how many times and what area they are from.. its a joke!!!!!
London-hal, are you sure you didn't choose the wrong campaign settings? Do you have Google Analytics set up to track visits?
I support google adword . Their time is behind you . they shows 3 months ago repors or a month ago repots , but their work is good and free .
Adwords is a SCAM. Click fraud is real, and there is a huge market for it. Other companies that are competing for those keywords pay malicious black hat SEO groups to bankrupt your ads.
Hey, this information is updated it is website to visit in new updated information google adwords.... http://searchenginewatch.com/article/2337812/Remarketing-Behavioral-Ads-ClickZLive-czlny Thanksss....
Why is it that I can consistently get up to 100 clicks a day on one of my ads when suddenly - literally overnight - the clicks drop to 0 clicks/day and stay there? Why is it that when I was getting 100 hits/day certain keywords only cost me around .60 per click, but when it drops to 0, I find that the keywords NOW cost over $5.00 per click? This smells like a scam! Sorry, Adwords, the law of averages just doesn't work this way!
This could be probably because of click frauds. Someone might have clicked on the ads served on behalf of you by adwords. One of the the main causes for the publishers are due to this. Google heavily penalize this behavior by blocking the adsense account and holding the payment.
